Back Up Contacts On Windows Mobile

Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) using systems such as Windows Mobile can organize your life. For your contacts, Windows Mobile devices provide an application known as Pocket Outlook. This app acts as an electronic phonebook containing all your contacts, which can be readily accessible at your fingertips. However, like any electronic device, you may lose your data. Hence, it's important to back up your contacts to another device, such as a computer.


Instructions


1. Insert the CD that came with your Windows Mobile device and Install Activesync on your PC. Follow the onscreen instructions to install the program.


2. Connect your Windows Mobile device to the computer (via a USB cable) on which you installed Activesync.


3. Follow the instructions that appear to set up your connection. You will also be choosing whether to sync your contacts with Outlook or Windows Address Book.


4. Click the "Backup/Restore" button, then select "Back Up Now."


5. Click "Full Backup" to back up your contacts.
